late at night.

Because of an arm injury, Fang Zheng was able to rest for a while.

In the room, seven Dharma lamps are arranged in order.

These Dharma lamps are essentially just ordinary oil lamps, but they are painted with various talismans on them.

With the blessing of the talisman, the faint light gathers the essence of the cold moon, causing the temperature in the house to drop sharply.

Sitting cross-legged in the middle, holding the Seal of Clearness in your hand, you are practicing the method of strengthening the soul of the Lushan School.

"The mysterious world is dark, and the seven stars shine on the moon!"

Seven stars shine in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the moonlight penetrates into his body, slowly growing his soul.

I don't know when.

The seven-star light during meditation began to become dim, and Fang Zheng slowly exhaled and put away the magic tricks.

After a few days of practice, my cultivation has made progress. It seems that I am just around the corner to break through to the Soul-Burning Realm.

Open your eyes and look at the Dharma lamps around you.

As expected, the originally bright lamp body has now grown a layer of black rust.

It seems to be after years of use!

In fact, he had bought these oil lamps for less than seven days, and the lamp body has decayed now.

"A oil lamp costs more than 100 yuan, and it costs 100 yuan for wholesale, and seven will be used in seven days!"

After silently deducting it, Fang Zheng shook his head speechlessly.

"This consumption is no wonder that there are so few people who practice the Dharma. Just simply practicing can consume a medium-sized family."

He used the secondiest oil lamp. If it was a good magic lamp that was refined, it would cost even more!

In addition, there are many external techniques such as talismans and refining techniques.

If you want to practice, you must not lack various consumables, and some even have prices but no market.

Just like raising a little ghost, you should have sufficient yin materials every day.

If it weren't for the rich family, there would be no way to offer a true warlock.

He got up and put away the useless magic lamp. Fang Zheng was about to clean up the decorations inside the house, but his ears suddenly moved.

"Crack..."

This is the sound of the outer door being pried open.

There is a thief?

His eyes chilled, and his left hand had quietly held the door stick tightly.

"Da da...da da..."

The sound of footsteps slowly approached the main hall, Fang Zheng also tightened his lips and came to the door with a stick to hide.

"Boy Fangzheng!"

A gloomy and familiar voice sounded: "What do you want to do? Want to sneak attack your old body?"

"Grandma Ma?"

Fang Zheng looked surprised and hurriedly put down his stick and opened the door: "Why are you here at this time?"

"I have something to do with you."

It was indeed a witch outside the door.

She wore a black robe and stepped into the house without any notice.

At the same time, he looked at Fangzheng's right hand with a squint eyes: "I heard you were injured, how about you?"

"fine."

Fang Zheng subconsciously closed his right arm and replied: "If Grandma Ma cares, it's nothing serious."

"Yeah?"

The witch Ma raised her eyebrows: "Why did I hear people say that you are seriously injured and your hands are almost ruined."

“Not that exaggerated.”

Fang Zheng laughed dryly and stepped forward to pack the table and stools: "Grandma Ma, sit down, I'll go get hot water."

"No need!"

The witch Ma waved her hand, pulled a stool and sat down: "I have nothing else to do, I'll leave after a while."

Fang Zheng knew that the other party would not come to him in the middle of the night, so he immediately took a look at him.

"Ahem..."

The witch Ma first coughed twice before saying, "I heard that you got a lot of rewards from the yamen that day?"

“…”

Fang Zheng tightened his face and subconsciously tightened his sleeves.

"Grandma Ma, I have asked someone to send all the money you promised to find someone to you."

"The other rewards were given by the county magistrates because I helped catch the thief and made meritorious contributions."

"Oh……"

The witch Ma said disdainfully: "If you didn't go looking for someone on my behalf, will it be your business to help catch the thief?"

"this……"

Fang Zheng opened his mouth and looked bitter: "Then, 28 minutes? You two and I eight. Grandma Ma, I was injured!"

"hey-hey……"

The witch Ma looked at him and sneered: "Boy, do you think the old man is the kind of person who gets into money?"

To be honest, you are!

Of course, Fang Zheng didn't dare to say this.

The witch Ma seemed to see what he was thinking, shook her head and said, "You are the only one here?"

"good."

Fang Zheng nodded.

The witch Ma nodded and continued to ask: "Are you not young? Where is your wife?"

"I haven't married yet."

Fang Zheng replied.

"oh?"

Ma Shenpo raised his eyebrows and said, "It shouldn't be true if he hasn't married at such an old age."

"On weekdays, washing clothes and cooking, sewing and repairing, it is always inconvenient for a big man. And it is not safe for no one to keep an eye on the house. You lost money before, because there is no one at home."

“…”

Fang Zheng blinked, looking strange.

To be honest, if it were the two of them, he would only express his gratitude, but the witch Ma said that it only made him feel uncomfortable.

What is this to do?

Is it not like the other person's personality if you care so much about yourself?

And the witch Ma changed her verbal faster and suddenly said, "It's been very messy outside these days, do you know?"

"A little heard."

Fang Zheng nodded.

Although he stayed in the door these days and was devoted to recuperating and practicing, he did not completely ignore foreign affairs.

After the Beggar Gang Hall, the county government knew that it was not strong enough and the state garrison could not count on it for a short time, so it hired Ren Jiawen to inspect the county town on his behalf.

After these private soldiers took office, they expelled beggars in the county and beaten them up in a row when they resisted.

Not only beggars, but also those who have no status, will be expelled.

Even locals in the county will be injured by accident.

For a time, everyone in the city was in danger. Not to mention the night, even those who could not go out during the day would not go out.

"The Ren family has a big situation and there is no way."

The witch Ma sighed and said, "Even my place is not spared. I was searched twice."

"It's really too much!"

Fang Zheng sighed lightly: "But I can't help with this matter, Grandma Ma is more careful."
